The marketing game is much more precarious than it was in 2012. If you missed the high by $2 then, it really wasn't the end of the world. Now if you miss the high by $0.50 it hurts. If you miss it by $1.00 it may be something you can't recover from. I guess I'm cautious to tell anyone to sell all of their 2016 crop that they have not yet planted when the futures price is $3.50ish. Maybe it will be the best price we see between now and when a guy might be forced to sell but I guess I'm hoping for better than that. Not $5.00, but certainly significantly better than $3.50. |
